The B787 Has Improved Dramatically via the Heavy Mod

Yes you’re spot on I think this is the root cause of the import problem as I had exactly the same issue while having the SB Import issue as well.

I managed to get it working again - I’m not sure exactly how but roughly this is what I did.

  • Remove 78XH-Main folder entirely from Community
  • Restart sim with the default 787
  • Enter ORIGIN and DEST airports. If ORIGIN does not input try DEST first then ORIGIN.
  • Once you can enter both and create Flight Plan etc. exit sim and re-install 78X Heavy (I used the Dev download from the Discord server not Github)
  • Restart with 78X Heavy and try entering ORIGIN and DEST. If it works then SB Import should work as well.

Let me know how you go and I’ll do likewise if the problem occurs again.

Hey @AgeRay27 - appreciate the help. Unfortunately, I followed your steps… when I use MSFS’s default B787, I can add origin and destination airports w/ zero issue. I then downloaded the DEV Heavy mod today and still have the exact same issue. Argh!! Route will not import.

Have you tried entering the ORIGIN manually in the 787H after re-installing it ?

yes, it doesn’t accept KDFW (where I spawn in). Wonder if I should try deleting the premium package and reinstalling it, then reinstalling Heavy mod
Are you in the SU6 Beta by chance? That may also be the reason to my issue.

Nah not SU6 beta tho I will be checking carefully when it releases.

Sorry the fix hasn’t worked for you if it happens to me again I’ll try trace my steps more closely maybe check your local cache folders etc

Sounds good. Thanks Age! I am talking with Comi and he’s trying to research what’s going on.

Any update on this? Tried flying the H787 this morning and running into the FMC issue.

So, you didn’t update the mod and tried flying it again and expected a different experience? Am I understanding that right?

Are you asking for an update on the issue I was having? It was a SU6 compatibility issue and Comi fixed it the day of the patch.

Download latest dev version. Been flying her fine all week.

I found a conflict between the P-38L Tablet and the Heavy Division Mod for the 787 (latest GA release - Sept 5th). When I remove the 787HDX mod, the P-38L works fine. I don’t know if the hang in this thread but it would be great if they can address the issue.

Several of us have already reported the conflict in the HD Discord. Not sure it’s been addressed yet. Have you downloaded the latest Dev version to be sure the conflict still exists? Frankly, I’ve been flying the P-38L so much lately I haven’t touched an airliner in weeks.

You are not wrong but I am still learning the P-38L so once in a while. I turn my mind off and fly a big plane.

Thanks for the quick response! I’m sorry, I feel dumb asking this, but do you happen to have a link to the dev version? I can only find the v0.1.10 Sept 5th version.

Here you go. Not sure there are many (if any) substantive changes since the SU6 Stable version.

Thank you!

Where would I find sim rate manager/pause at tod options in 787. I am looking all over in FMS and not finding it. Not under heavy option it’s disabled under vnav des page. And does anyone have invite link to their discord server?

it appears they removed that function in the most recent dev version.

Yikes. Ok we’ll wait. They really did a nice job with this plane. Flies really nice.

Does anyone have latest discord invite link they can share?
